“(In 1959) Hans and Erwin Kurth and their engineering and technical teams set their objectives on creating a unique market niche based on a concept defined by quality. From that effort springs the idea of a specially suspended movement inside a highly reinforced case, appropriately named DS or "Double Security".

Certina DS remains a legend from 1959 till today. NOS Certina is certainly a lovely treasure. This Certina DS is a full N.O.S. I was very surprised indeed when I first saw it! The case is bright and feckless as mirror. The bracelet is the quality ‘Butterfly-Clasp’ style. Everything of this watch is of high quality and finishing. A genuine handsome and wholesome Certina DS.

The lighting is too strong in the photos. Watch is much better for real eyes.
